The Twaddle-Pedroli Ranch is a lovely, old property in Washoe Valley, just south of Bowers Mansion. The ranch was purchased in 1869 for $5000 by John Twaddle. A few of the original buildings still stand, including a large horse barn, chicken house, and a beautiful stone dairy house. The property was placed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2000.

- carts might be a little awkward - this is old farm land we will be walking around weeds and irrigation ditches, totebags or backpacks might be easier.
- Forecast calls for sunny day, highs in the high 60's.
The mountains will have snow on them and the fields will be greening up.
